We will be giving out certificates to those who have achieved 25 nights of reading one Wednesday a month at our Unit Assembly.

This week for maths all students are expected to use their times tables resources to help them with learning their times tables off by heart.
Each child has:
  • A Timestables Mat
  • A Timestables Square Grid
  • A Timestables Clock for practising on

You are expected to practise your timestables over a couple of nights each week. You could add this onto the end of your reading practise.

Mrs B has set you all a task on our topic of Addition & Subtraction on Mathletics. Get onto mathletics and give it a go. (Remember you are not to do the test until asked please.) If you are unable to get onto the internet at home this week you may have time at school. You may come into the classroom from 8.45 and use this time until the bell for Mathletics.
Alternatively, you may choose from the tub of homework sheets from the Mathletics workbook on our topic.
